Franklin fireworks

With the return of fireworks to celebrate the nation’s independence, Franklin residents will be able to once again see the rocket’s red glare over the municipal complex. 

Last night, council members approved a pared-down display for July 2, forgoing the food vendors, games and other activities that normally supplement the township’s fireworks display. The gazebo on the municipal lawn will host musical acts throughout the evening, with the possibility of screens broadcasting the performances around the complex.
